Fatwa #26394 April 2001United States of America

When performing Wudhu, how should the beard be washed?

Answer

If the beard is thick, it will suffice to pass the wet fingers through it and if the beard is sparse, then it is necessary to wash the skin beneath it. (Shaami vol.1 pg.117; HM Saeed)

And Allah Ta'ala Knows Best
